The Blessed Virgin and the Holy Spirit

Post by Denise »

All of Mary’s greatness as a Christian is owing to the fact that the Holy Spirit came upon her, and that she lived in the presence of God, continuously aware of His presence in her life. Our Lady cooperated with the Spirit’s promptings in loving obedience to God’s Word; she daily renewed her fiat at the Annunciation. Mary the Virgin heeded the Lord’s plan for her and thus became fruitful.

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
